PORTSMOUTH, RI, UNITED STATES, July 30, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ — Composite Energy Technologies (CET), and Raytheon, an RTX (NYSE: RTX) business, have achieved a major milestone in the fielding of a next-generation Uncrewed Undersea Vehicle (UUV) capable of delivering payloads over an extended range. The UUV is powered by Navy-developed software and autonomy packages that are available for industry use.
In less than four months, Raytheon and CET collaborated to design, integrate, and deploy a fully autonomous extended-range UUV, culminating in a live in-water demonstration under operational conditions. This rapid timeline underscores the agility and technical strength of the partnership, as well as the power of leveraging open-architecture software developed by the Navy.
